This case report describes alopecia universalis-like hair loss occurring in two patients with cutaneous T cell lymphoma, providing clinical, dermoscopic, and pathologic features to help differentiate it from alopecia areata universalis.

The baby’s hair loss was due to a rare genetic condition, not treatable by usual methods.

In this case report, eyelash transplantation with leg hair resulted in less frequent maintenance and no need for perming compared to using nape hair donor sources.

This article discusses using body and beard hair for hair restoration and reviews the indications, techniques, and risks involved, but reports no new clinical results.

This paper discusses the use of dermatoscopy as a fast, noninvasive technique for diagnosing hair shaft disorders and reports no new results; the authors highlight its advantages over traditional microscopy methods.

This report describes two siblings with a new familial association of loose anagen syndrome and ocular coloboma, despite unaffected parents and no family history.

In this report, a case of steroid-resistant multifocal alopecia areata was successfully treated with topical bimatoprost, suggesting it may be a promising alternative therapy.

This report describes a case where oral valganciclovir treatment led to improved skin texture and hair regrowth in a patient with trichodysplasia spinulosa.

This article discusses the features and increasing prevalence of frontal fibrosing alopecia, a type of scarring hair loss, and reports no new clinical results.

This study reports a novel missense mutation in the HR gene in a 68-year-old Hungarian woman with alopecia universalis and limb deformities, suggesting a need for further research on its role in these conditions.

This article discusses the genetic hair disorder monilethrix, characterized by beaded, fragile hair due to defective keratin genes, and reports no effective treatment currently available; variability in severity was noted among affected siblings.

This case report discusses a 35-year-old man with progressive alopecia areata who did not respond to minoxidil treatment but offers no new clinical trial results.

This correspondence discusses the treatment of alopecia universalis in a 6-year-old girl using simvastatin/ezetimibe, minoxidil, and prednisolone, but it reports no new clinical findings.

A girl with red hair developed hair-pulling and body image disorders after being bullied for her hair color.

This case report describes a new family with autosomal recessive hypotrichosis simplex with woolly hair, suggesting the disorder may be underreported due to misdiagnosis.

Hair transplantation is a surgical procedure to move hair to bald areas, requires good donor hair, and results show in about a year.

Keratosis Pilaris Atrophicans causes skin scarring and might be treated with a new synthetic retinoid.

This study identified a novel splice site mutation in the LIPH gene associated with autosomal recessive woolly hair, contributing to understanding the genetic basis of this condition.

This study found that while some patients with severe alopecia areata responded to high-dose prednisolone, the response was inconsistent and the therapy's risks prevent recommending it for general use.

This study found pathogenic mutations in genes EDA, EDA1R, and EDARADD in 101 out of 124 hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia patients, revealing 23 novel mutations and indicating genetic variability.

This article discusses alopecia areata, highlighting its autoimmune nature and the lack of FDA-approved treatments, without providing new research findings.

This study reports that topical minoxidil 5% foam may effectively promote hair growth in congenital alopecia and hypotrichosis linked to desmoplakin mutations, as demonstrated by significant hair growth in an 8-year-old boy.

This case report describes a 33-year-old Kashmiri woman with Woodhouse-Sakati syndrome who has a rare DCAF17 gene mutation, c.321+1G>A, providing further evidence for its role in the genetic basis of this neuroendocrine disorder.

In this report, a preterm neonate was found to have total irreversible hair loss due to congenital atrichia, confirmed by a mutation in the human hairless gene on chromosome 8p22, illustrating this rare autosomal recessive disorder.

This report describes a rare case of papular atrichia in a 4-year-old girl, highlighting the absence of effective treatment to stimulate hair growth for this condition.

This case report describes a 3-year-old boy with trichothiodystrophy, highlighting specific MRI findings of diffuse dysmyelination and osteosclerosis that may be unique to the disorder.

In this study, researchers identified a novel and two previously reported pathogenic mutations in the HR gene associated with atrichia with papular lesions in five Pakistani families.

This study reported a previously undescribed form of hereditary hypotrichosis in a family, characterized by childhood-onset hair loss, morphea, and probable autosomal dominant inheritance.

This study found a recurrent nonsense mutation in the HR gene linked to atrichia with papular lesions in two Kashmiri families, suggesting whole exome sequencing as an efficient method for diagnosis and genetic counseling.

This report describes a case of two sisters with kinky, tangled hair diagnosed using trichoscopic and microscopic methods; they were treated with topical minoxidil.
